lost dogs - in the distance lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1: mike roe]
i watch the moonlight hit her window
it weaves bright diamonds through her hair
but i have tarried in these shadows
in hopes she will not see me here
i don’t know what i’ve been thinking
i should move on to other business
but i promised i would be strong
and only watch her in the distance

[verse 2: terry taylor]
i know the war claimed her young husband
and so her life’s been mighty rough
and she doesn’t need more sorrow
i have given her enough
so i will try to keep my mind off
my poor aching heart’s insistence
she must learn to live without me
so i’ll just watch her in the distance

[verse 3]
i recall the fight in franklin
a yankee bullet laid me down
that night, i watched her in the graveyard
where they put me in the ground
that’s when i heard the angels calling
and felt the pull of love’s resistance
so the good lord let me linger
so i could watch her in the distance

[verse 4: derri daugherty]
if i wrapped cold arms around her
if i gently spoke her name
she couldn’t bear my haunted whisper
so there’s nothing to be gained
perhaps my time has come for leaving
time to lay down my defenses
and be content with having loved her
even in the distance
for i’ve been blessed for having loved her
even in the distance
